Why do you think Elon is more likely to make the product worse than the current management?

Twitter can make a lot more money 'right now' by focusing a lot more on ads.

Changing a few features here and there otherwise, will not somehow magically engender a ton more users.

So the 'low hanging fruit' for investors to 'unlock value' is really about ads.

More ads generally makes the product worse for users.
